As a lifelong fan of wrestling, we often compare today’s talent to the characters of years ago. The wrestling personalities of the 1980s were thought to be the strongest. People stood out with big mouths and even bigger abilities in the ring. Granted, fans can still enjoy these standouts today, but they’re far fewer in number than they were at the peak of wrestling in the late 1990s. Thankfully, however, we have a one-in-a-kind talent of this nature in current independent wrestling star Tony Deppen.

Valentine’s Day may not have been the best this year, but there’s still a chance for you to feel the love. Get to IWTV and take a look as Camp Leapfrog presents Camp LoveFrog, a celebration of adoration, copulation, and devastation! Camp Leapfrog has enjoyed a jump in popularity over the past few months. The promotion’s block at GCW’s Fight Forever back in January was memorable for its Cibernetico match. However, there’s a lot more to Leapfrog that’s coming up on the horizon. There’s so much creativity and talent (better known as ‘campers’) involved with each production that you can’t…

Nick Gage Sets the Tone at Fight Forever There’s a reasonable explanation for the wrestling world’s fascination with Nick Gage. You may be reading this as a mainstream wrestling fan with only marginal knowledge of the independent scene. Still, chances are good you’ve heard of The King. Charisma is one way to describe his appeal, yet there’s so much more to Nick Gage’s drawing power. No matter how you prefer to word the ‘it’ factor, it keeps his beloved gang members loyal. Over the past few months, Gage has been recovering from injury and a needed surgery. However, the time…

This Saturday in Hanceville, Alabama, New South Presents the Dump Sanders Holiday Special! The card for this show is a special one indeed. You might fret if you can’t make it down south for this one, but Santa Dump’s got you covered. All of the action going down this Saturday will air on the upcoming Episode 15 of Action Clash on IWTV! New South Pro Wrestling Presents Dump Sanders Holiday…

The season got brighter this past weekend for a good number of independent wrestlers! Fans were treated to a free GCW show via YouTube last Saturday from the GCW Performance Center. GCWs Slime Season turned out to be a grand success as over 45,000 fans watched eight solid matches. Over $15,000 was donated by supportive fans looking out for the independent wrestlers who work hard to entertain everyone. There was plenty of goodwill at Slime Season, but now it’s time to reflect and take a look back at what was also truly outstanding in the ring. ____________ 5 Great Moments…

For the first time in months, I’ll get to enjoy (and gif) a GCW show from home! This Sunday’s GCW Presents So Much Fun in Atlantic City will be the second event in a weekend double-header. The last outlaws will be back on the Jersey shore all this weekend. The good times start with the Nick Gage Invitational 5 on Saturday at the Sandlot outside the Showboat Casino. The next day’s festivities will be a return to the Carousel Room for GCW; Sunday’s show is their first one there since Run Rickey Run back in February. That show was an…

Outlaws gonna do outlaw things. If that means going out into the middle of Orange County to have some fun, so be it! This Saturday in Silverado, CA we’re in for a hell of a time at GCW The Last Resort. It’s been forever since GCW’s run a show on the West Coast. It’s time the promotion introduced its fans to some new names on that side of the scene. You might not be willing to venture out into the canyons this weekend, but you can catch all of this event live on FITE.tv! GCW The Last Resort SHLAK vs.…

Let me tell you when Tampa fell through earlier this year I was distraught. Sure, a lot of that came from not being able to go to the Collective as scheduled. The biggest pain, however, was not being able to have the GCW presents EFFY’s Big Gay Brunch as intended. Seriously, I had plans for that show. I was going to show up in my silk sleeping cap and pajama bottoms as if I’d just rolled out of bed. It was going to be great…until the pandemic happened. Rescheduling the Collective to Indianapolis, however, was the saving grace. Sure, we…

Oh, SUP. How long has it been? I can tell you exactly how long it’s been, actually. The last Southern Underground Pro I attended was back in March in Nashville. That was a fine show but definitely the darkest moment of the year. Two events devastated the promotion, but the March show was proof positive that SUP was not going out without trying their hardest to entertain the fans. The promotion lost its home base, the Basement East, in early March when a tornado ripped through the eastern side of Nashville. Thankfully the BEAST did not suffer a total loss,…

You will not want to miss out on the latest episode of New South Pro’s Action Clash! The latest episodic program to join the ever-expanding IWTV library is a fantastic one. Action Clash is a weekly hour-long show that features the latest of in-ring action from New South’s established and rising talents alike. You may be new to this series, but it’s not hard to catch up. In fact, the first three episodes are already available on-demand on IWTV. I recommend a binge-watch. Do so before you tune in on Tuesday night at 7 pm CST/8 pm EST to see…
